general information

Discover the home of Flamenco & Fado, Tapas & Port. Experience Spain & Portugal! On this breath-taking motorcycle tour through Spain and Portugal we will find the origins of Spain’s national dance and the best port wine in Portugal. But obviously there’s more we can expect: tons of stunning motorcycling roads along the coast, over mountains and around softly rolling hills. From Málaga, we’ll carve the twisty roads of the Costa del Sol to the Algarve, a spectacular coast which invites you to take a swim. On we ride to Lisbon, a work of art, with streets so steep that instead of using our bikes we have to use our feet to climb them – so bring some comfy shoes! A long but rewarding riding day takes us across the Extremadura to Zafra, where we find the time to relax a bit. Eventually, the endless curvy roads of the Sierra Morena sweeten our ride to Córdoba, our last stop before we reach Málaga again. With port wine in our luggage, flamenco in our ears and countless memories in our heads we have to say goodbye to these unique countries – but only for now…

Clothing we highly recommend bringing:

– Helmet (highly recommended: full face)

– Gloves (Waterproof, breathable, lightweight, or insulating materials)

– back protector (snug-fitting)

– Jacket (elbows & shoulders should be protected)

– Pants (knees, hips & even your seat should be protected)

– Boots (oil resistant & non-slip soles)

– rain gear (prepare yourself for warm/dry & cold/wet weather!)
